Pokémon Mansion Mystery: A Mafia Spin-Off (Game Now In Progress!)

(Mods, Two of the Mafia Games haven’t been posted in for over a month)

Pokémon Mansion Mystery- a Mafia spin-off

The Game is Over, Congratulations to CraziedCreator for winning!.

Background information

Welcome, to a new innovative mafia game: Pokemon Mansion Mystery! This is a combination of regular mafia, murder, and your classic detective story; you'll have to piece together clues quickly, because anyone could be the next victim! Here our players are guests in a Mansion filled with lies, questions, and deceit. A party of 16 Gym Leaders suddenly goes awry, and a mysterious boy that goes by the name of Ice is one of the keys to it all. A few lucky Trainers were invited, but they did not know of the fate that awaited them. With their trusted Pokémon in tow, they head off to discover the culprit of a heinous crime, and other mysteries this mansion holds.

Activity- Please try to be active in this game at all times. This is crucial, as it is vital for finding clues; The more you're on, the more you can find clues and take part in lynches.

The Dead do not talk- When one dies, they can’t communicate at all, but they’re clues and notes will be able to be used by anyone, so make sure that you PM me all clues and notes you have written

Exploring the Mansion- Exploring the mansion is your only way to find the evidence necessary to convict the right people of committing crimes. To enter a Room, PM me with the following in the message: [Mansion Mystery: <Floor #, Room #, Character’s Name> Investigation]. I will reply with the contents of the room. If you wish, you can report your findings to other trainers. You may only enter a room on the floor you are currently on, unless you are in the stairwell, which is in one of the rooms. You start in the Den on floor 2. If you go into a room with a trap that can end you, I will make the discovery of your body public. If your trainer’s Pokémon can absorb the blow for you, or halt the trap. I will announce the Pokémon’s death instead. Because it is very important to explore rooms, it is mandatory to investigate 4-6 rooms per day.
All basic Forum and Mafia Rules apply. If not, you might fall into the abyss. You can role play, but keep it at a minimum.

Items: These can be found throughout the mansion and can have extraordinary benefits if used wisely.

First Aid Kits- Heals any damage taken from non-lethal traps in the mansion. *There are more than one of these in the mansion.

Binding Band- Will make one user unable to do anything for a day.
Soul Gem- Kills the holder after two days, but reveals the identity of the bounty member/murderer. *After this death, a second player is decided at random and given a fragment of the gem. *This player will receive vague hints from the dead player, but will also die after another two days.
Mysterious Crystal- Who knows what this can do? *Use it to find out.

Story so far:

Spoiler:- Story:

The guests in the Mansion were having a wonderful dinner made surprisingly by the Unovan leader Burgh. He and two of the Leaders, Elesa and Skyla, were there because of an Arts expo being held nearby. The Kanto leaders were celebrating their region being voted Region of the Year, and five others, Volkner, Whitney, Juan, Liza, and Tate were all there because of friends or being invited like most of the guests.

Everyone was having such a wonderful dinner, and suddenly the lights went out. When they turned back on, all of the gym leaders were missing! Guests were horrified and in panic, not knowing what to do. Ice, the mysterious one, and his Chandelure, Flare, decided to go on a search expedition to find the Gym Leaders.
After tons of searching of the third floor, and finding a key to the second floor, the expedition seemed good. They Found Misty cowering in her room, and they brought her alone. They went into the Den and saw Blue sitting idly by; they decided to have every Gym Leader found go to the den. Ice then had everyone split their separate ways. All seemed well, until Ice came back into the den, carrying Erika, well, Erika’s body. She seemed to have died from a slash wound in the neck.
Now, after the quick series of events that followed, everyone decided to go their separate ways, and find whoever killed her… Not knowing about a crew of Bounty Hunters that were assembled out of the Guests.

Factions- Factions provide a new twist that makes this game more than just the town vs. the murderer. There are 4 factions in this game:
1. The Guests- The Guests are the ordinary trainers who did not take a side after Erika's death. The majority of the players will belong to this group.
2. The Bounty Hunters- The Bounty Hunters are a group of elite killers who have attended the party. One of the players will be randomly selected to be a member of this group.
3. The Peacemakers- The Peacemakers are the few guests who took Brock's side after Erika's death. They want to find the killer and negotiate peacefully with him/her. Three players will be randomly selected to be part of this group.
4. The Hellraisers- The Hellraisers are the few guests who sided with Blue after Erika's death. They seek to find the killer and bring them to justice their own, not so peaceful way. Three players will be randomly selected to be part of this group.

Deaths- In this game, we have three kinds of Deaths. Lynch, Accidental (Trap), and Bounty. Every night, The Guests will kill off one of their own. This is mandatory, and every member (including those from the other factions) is required to vote in the lynch at least every other night. This will be done by PM. (The message should be: Mansion Mystery :< Character’s> Vote. In the message, bold the character you wish to vote for, for unvoting, underline your previous vote’s name and then bold another) Then we have Accidental (Trap) deaths. These are new, certain rooms will have traps contained in them, some set up by the Bounty Hunters, and some set up from long before the mansion has been hosting parties. If a character dies from this, it will be automatically made public. Then there are Bounty deaths. This is nightly, like the lynch. The Sixth Bounty Member will send me a PM message on who will die, and how. Ice and all Gym Leaders are immune from kills for game reasons.

Winning- Because there are now 4 factions, the requirements to win the gene have changed as well.
1. The Guests- The Guests win if they lynch off the Bounty Member, 3 Peacemakers, and 3 Hellraisers.
2. The Peacemakers- The Peacemakers win if they discover who killed Erika and confront that person.
3. The Hellraisers- The Hellraisers win if they discover who killed Erika and confront and kill that person.
4. The Bounty Hunters- The Bounty Hunters win if only two other players remain alive, or if the Guests are all dead and only one gym leader faction is left.

Murder’s Note- The first note was pre-written with Erika’s Death, and will be revealed once Night 0 is over. After that, the 6th member will send a note after they kill, it is optional, but they have to do it every other night, like Lynching. Erika’s death note will not hint towards the Sixth, but for 6th’s first note, it will have hints. If another Gym Leader dies, the note will differentiate. Though, some of the notes might be Fake suicide, and others will be hinting towards other leaders instead. This doesn’t require any formatting at all.

Just Saying to everyone who joins, I look foward to making this as susseful as Apollo and I did last time. You may currently send me your applications, but Apollo will make the final desicion! Whenver Apollo is gone, send me your apps, notes, and whatevers. I'm still participating, so don't give me to much XD

Also, State your Edits, Only post when your accepted, yada yada you guys get it.

Reason: More info

Just to let you guys for the heads up. Even though it's not stated in the OP, those who are RNG's for the factions will know of each other.

I.E The Peacekeepers will all know who eachother is, the Hellraisers will, and the Bounty Hunter will learn of the other Five members. Also, the Bounty Hunter is not allowed to bring in the other five. Why? They're a team, so unlike the Accomplice status, they need to trust the other five. Same with the Peacekeepers and Hellraisers.

Apollo, I know you may have not wanted this to be stated, but, it's information that's wiser to be known then kept a secret. Candle over and out

Me! My character is a likable person, who is never mean. However, my Cofagrigus is a deciever and decieves everyone, including Jordan. However, Jordan doesnt know this and pretends nothing is happening. Was bored

Firenze:
A fiesty little girl, always up for a laugh. She uses her whip as a weapon a lot, and many say she is a dark wizard. She just smiles and pretends she's innocent tough, those puppy dog eyes see through anything.

Zoroark:

Zoroark, or known as Shadowbolt, is a rather dark person. He hates losing and will do whatever it takes to win. He was once a feared assasin Zoura, and evolving made him more dangerous... He's good friends with Firenze for helping him kill a small pidgey for eating. Ever since he traveled with her. Shadowbolt is best friends with Firenze and is extreamly loyal, he will not kill unless ordered, and will/could sacrifice himself for the better good.

Ice stared, lost in thought. Flare hovered around him worriedly, like he was about to collapse. Ice drew the knife from his pocket, and started to cut his skin

I know where it will turn vital, so I wont have to worry. I wonder where everyone else is... I must find them. I have a fealing that death will be abundent here, not like I'm use to it. Being in Lavender for a while really takes a toll on you... Such sadness... Sabrina...Elesa...Skyla...Volkner... I need to... I need to talk to them...

Ice convulsed in pain as he accidentally sliced to deep

Damn it! Ugh.... I'm not going to die here, I can't die here... I must bring this caseto a close. I knew, a Gym Leader was going to be assassinated

His blue hair drifted softly in the breeze from the window, the moonlight shining on his crimson blood. It seemed to be eternally night here, or well, it was plunged into Darkness... He put on what looked like to be a Scanner

But not Erika... Elesa, she'll freak!

Ice quickly bandaged up his self-inflicted wounds, and started to head towards the den.

[OOC]

Well, if you insist

Ice- You'll find out more as we progress

Flare- As enigmatic as Ice

[Ic]
Ice quickly put on his black hood so his face was covered from view, he drew a Katana from his back

Hey, me and Shad-I mean Zoroark were wondering what happened here!" A girl asked him as he pointed the weapon at her

"Erika was killed... Sad, isn't it? the GYm Leaders are analyzing the Note, so we can't really figure it out yet." He told her, his icy, grey eyes being emotionless, his words pouring out like honeyed caresses

"I sense something with in you... I hope, we get to meat again someday..." Ice told her as he put the Katana back, and faded into the darkness of the corridor

After the little talk was over, Firenze facepalmed as Shadow went into rage. Shadow went back to normal form and stormed right in front of Ice after he caught up.

"DA**, HE** RIGHT WE WON'T LISTEN TO YOUR SH** AND CR**, HE** NO, YOU DON'T GIVE A FU** DO YOU, YOU LITTLE SON OF A BIT**, TELL ME THE DAM* FULL SHI*Y STORY OR I'LL SEND YOU AND YOUR LITTLE PIECE OF CR** AND SEND YOU BACK TO THE HE** YOU CAME FROM!" Shadow yelled right in front of Ice's face, ready to kill. Firenze attempted to drag Shadow away, yelling "No, Shad, don't kill!" "Seriously, why are you so heavy?" "If you let go now we'll get a pizza."
